Katsiani will focus on creating content and building communities among Kids Industries clients.
Frankie Stevens is a recent graduate from Loughborough University and brings strong story-telling skills to the agency with experience in freelance illustration and social campaigns for mental health awareness. Her work as a designer at Kids Industries will involve preparing assets for client projects.
